This is exactly how I feel everytime i get really under... I just remind myself how it feels to know people who commit and I think of how many people I will cause to feel that way... this is perhaps one of the most true statements I've read on the matter. You really DON'T have that luxury. No one does.

thank you.
So simple but yet so clever, has meaning a lot of meaning and we all can relate to this.
We all struggle in some way or another and It's the same struggle we all face to struggle not to give up on struggling or be it our end.

I'm struggling right now, haha. But I don't have the luxury of quitting. Gotta keep moving.
this is ever so simple, but so many different emotions behind it. i think each of us can relate to this piece in a certain manner, depending on what they are going through and what they went through. even just the quote "will you succumb to your anxieties?" would provoke a lot of conversation. i try to believe that each of us is given a life, that we just have to do the best with what we have to change the things we can, at that very moment or be-rid of the things we can't and don't want.

I agree with you 100%!!! Good to hear from you again Natasha, thanks.
Intensely true. Life isn't easy and for some it may seem harder because they were not given a easy ride a/k/a money and fame. And then there are some who have people who...I am not sure how to say this, but it is like...for an example my step-father who is passed away now. (And I am not sure why I am getting into this in a comment because I am actually a very private person.) My step-father was mentally and emotionally cruel. He made life so damn hard and it really motivated me to be a better person and recognize that there are all kinds of people in this world. O_O I am actually just rambling, but anyway this was a good read because it has a message I think many should take to heart.

You are only given a hard life if you can handle it. Guess we're all strong people on here. leaves lot of space for your own imagination to work. Its simple and effective. Inspirational in a subtle, undertone kind of way
